blowjobs for everyone!

so i was reading this article in the new york times about a book titled rainbow parties by paul ruditis. it's a fictional book about teens that throw oral sex parties. but i couldn't help but wonder about this one paragraph in the article, quoted below:

"Oral sex has, undoubtedly, become part of many teenagers' sexual repertory. According to the 1995 National Survey of Adolescent Males, released in 2000, about half of boys aged 15 to 19 had received oral sex from a girl, and slightly more than a third had performed it. A 2004 NBC-People survey of 13- to 16-year- olds found that 12 percent had engaged in oral sex, and 4 percent of those - or less than half a percent overall - had been to an oral sex party."

i just think it's funny that the writer refered to blowjobs as repertory. not that the stats are all that disturbing or shocking. funny, though.

read the whole article here.

hey there, you don't know me. I googled Tribeza cuz I'm about to interview for a fall internship. how do you like it there? I really need a good atmosphere to distract me from the fact that I'm not going to be paid. 1 1/2 months at the Daily Texan made me crazy cuz I put in crazy hours (copy and photo) and only got $15/day.... TAXED.... so.. yeah... hit me back when you have the time. Maybe I'll see you around =)
